I am 27 year old and look like I am 40 due to having a sagging eyelid with a lot of excess skin. (Photos)

Age is really not a factor when determining the "right" time to have surgery on your upper lids.  For genetic cases like yourself, it's perfectly reasonable to proceed with having upper eyelid surgery to correct the skin excess.  I make my incision in the natural crease of your upper lid.  Recovery is generally 5-7 days.  I use Occumend pads, which contain 50x the normal over the counter concentration of Arnica Montana and Ledum to help with post-operative bruising and swelling.  Surgery is done under local anesthesia in my procedure room.  It's a well tolerated procedure.  Check out some of my videos and photos for further information.  You are a great candidate. Be sure to see a board certified facial plastic surgeon, occuloplastic surgeon, or plastic surgeon.

Upper eyelid surgery is easy to have done and affordable compared to many of the procedures we do.  It appears you would be a great candidate.  I had my upper eyelids done when I was 29 years old for the same reason and have always been glad I did..  Get an appointment today!

It looks like you would be a great candidate for an upper eyelid blepharoplasty. The excess skin in the upper lids would be removed allowing more of your upper eyelid to be visible. The surgery can easily be performed in an office setting using local anesthetic. The sutures are usually removed in 3-5 days and the recovery is overall pretty easy. Most patients are using a little makeup to cover some discolorations, but are otherwise back doing day to day activities once the sutures are removed. The results are very natural and the scar becomes very difficult to even see once it heals completely. The results typically last for decades.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Facial Rejuvenation SpecialistQuintessa Aesthetic Centers

A small excision of skin of the upper eyelid would correct this.  It can be done under local anesthesia in the office and the scar can be well hidden in your eyelid crease.  

When done by an experienced surgeon, upper lid surgery can be a home run! Removal of upper lid skin and a very little fat will rejuvenate the upper lids and give the look you desire. Upper blepharoplasty surgery can be done under local anesthesia--you do not have to be put to sleep under anesthesia. This surgery can be done by a facial plastic surgeon, plastic surgeon or oculoplastic surgeon. I recommend consulting with a few surgeons and have a look at their before and after photos to help you decide.

Eyelid surgery has become one of my most popular procedures. If excess upper eyelid skin is hooding the eye and needs to be eliminated, an incision is made in the crease at the top of the lid and excess fat and skin are removed. The incisions are closed and sutured on the underside of the skin, which are removed in four to six days. The incisions are along your eyelash line, making it a virtually scarless procedure.

You have small amount of skin over upper eyelids and eyelid surgery will fix this. This can be done under local with quick recovery. 

The excess/hooded skin that is present on the upper eyelids can be removed with a very conservative upper eyelid blepharoplasty. This can be performed under either local or general anesthesia, depending upon the patient's desires.

Thanks for the question and for the images.  Many younger patients become very self conscious when they notice aging changes around the eyes, as your periorbital appearance often imparts an impression on those around you or those you meet.  You may appear tired, angry, or sad because of changes to your lids.  You look to be a great candidate to consider lid rejuvenation by upper blepharoplasty to remove excess skin and contour the underlying orbital fat.  I would encourage a formal consultation for a more thoughtful exam to discuss your options.  You may also want to consider a filler to your lower eyelid "tear trough" and possibly periorbital skin resurfacing to address crepey skin.  Good luck!  Know that your concerns can be addressed!

Thank you for your question. You do have heavy upper eyelids, which can be genetic from your father. My recommendation would be to see an oculoplastic surgeon who specializes in eyelid surgery to discuss your individual needs. Best of luck, Dr. Heffernan
